Locally, we're just a couple miles from the Kings River, for hiking and fishing, and the Buffalo National River reception area is home to popular attractions like the Lost Valley Hiking Trail, the Boxley Valley Elk Herd, the Ponca Elk Education Center and the Upper Buffalo Mountain Biking Trails.

Cabin Space

We were a family of 7 & everyone had a bed & their own space plus the living room was perfect for the night it was too cold to sit out by a fire. We shared the favorite moments of our daily hikes. Master bedroom bed was very comfy (I prefer a firmer mattress), but the adults in the bunks had it a little tougher since although they are doubles, they are still bunks (fully disclosed & shown in pics). The cabin setting was beautiful & we enjoyed petting the horses. They are so friendly they even greeted us by the car on the way up to the cabin! Every thing you need is there, down to the dish soap to the beautiful quits in each room. The cabin was clean & plenty for f supplies to tidy up while staying was on hand. I wish could live here ❤️

Relaxing and Refreshing!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Resting Place cabin. We found the house well-equipped, clean, and comfortable. An unexpected perk appreciated by our teens was the strong wifi connection! The grounds are beautiful and we (and our dog) loved how friendly the animals were! We found great hiking locations in the area and enjoyed getting off the beaten path. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Julianne Hawthorne

Pete & Lynda Bowers, pictured above are the owners.
We enjoy traveling up the hill to our home and waving or stopping to introduce ourselves to our different guest. Love seeing children enjoying themselves playing outdoors and catching pollywogs in our pounds and other fun old fashion things kids used to enjoy doing.

Why they chose this property

Pete and Lynda's goal for purchasing Mountain Valley Ranch was providing a safe and peaceful place others could stay on site and relax, read, walk, watch animals and find respite in peace and quietness.

What makes this property unique

We have failed to hear one guest over the past 11 years say they wish they could hear all the sounds of cars, busy streets and loudness. NO, they say, they love the quietness and the peace provided through the sounds of natural breezes through the trees, the sound of our creeks and streams, livestock running up and down our hills and our lovely birds. Travelers love our porches with beautiful views. A time to reflect while greatly enjoying life in a quite tranquil setting.
